1 And when it was decided for us to sail (to) [the] Italy, they were delivering both [the] Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion, Julius by name(=named Julius), of the Majesty’s(=Augustan) Cohort.
2 And having gone on board a ship of Adramyttium being about to sail for the places(=ports) along(=of) [the] Asia, we set sail, being of Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica(=and Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, was)1 with us.
3 And on the next (day), we landed at Sidon. And Julius, having kindly treated [the] Paul, allowed (him) going(=to go) to the(=his) friends (in order) to attain care.
4 And putting to sea from there, we sailed under the lee of [the] Cyrus because of to be the contrary winds(=because the winds were contrary).
5 And having sailed over the sea against(=off the coast of) [the] Cilicia and Pamphylia, we landed at Myra of Lycia.
6 And there having found an Alexandrian ship sailing to [the] Italy, the centurion put us in it(=on board).
7 And in many days, sailing slowly and barely having come against(=off the coast of) [the] Cnidus, the wind’s not allowing to proceed(=as the wind did not allow to proceed)2 us, we sailed under the lee of [the] Crete against Salmone.
8 And barely sailing along it, we came to a certain place being called “Beautiful Havens,” to which (the) city of Lasea was near.
9 And much time’s having passed(=when much time had passed)3, and the voyage’s being(=as the voyage was)4 already dangerous, because of also the fast already to have gone by(=because the fast had already gone by), [the] Paul was warning (them),
10 saying to them, “Men, I see that the voyage to be about to be(=the voyage will be) with damage and much loss not only of the cargo and the ship but also of our lives.”
11 But the centurion was being persuaded by the captain and the owner of the ship than by the things said by Paul.
12 And the harbor’s being(=because the harbor was)5 unsuitable for winter in, the majority placed decision(=decided) to set sail from there, if somehow they might be able to winter, having arrived at Phoenix, a harbor of Crete looking toward(=facing) both southwest and northwest.
13 And south wind’s having blown gently(=when the south wind blew gently)6, having thought to have obtained the(=their) aim, having weighed (anchor), they were sailing along closer to the Crete.
14 And after not much(=before very long), a violent wind being called Euraquilo(=northeaster) swept down from it(=Crete).
15 And the ship’s having been seized and not being able to(=since the ship was caught and could not)7 face the wind, having given up, we were being carried(=were driven)
16 And having run under the lee of a small island being called Cauda, we were barely able to get control of the boat.
17 Having taken up the ship, they were using ropes, undergirding the ship. And fearing lest they might run aground into(=on) the Syrtis, having lowered the mainsail, so they were being carried(=were driven).
18 And violently our being tossed(=as we were violently tossed)8 (by the storm), the next day they were making a throwing out(=began to throw the cargo).
19 And on the third (day), they threw (out) the equipment of the ship with their own hands.
20 And neither sun nor stars’ appearing(=when neither sun nor stars appeared)9 over(=for) many days, and no little storm’s lying(=the great storm lay)10 (upon us), henceforth all hope (for) us to be saved was being taken away.
21 And much abstinence’s being(=as there was long abstinence)11, then having stood in the midst of them, [the] Paul said, “Men, you, having obeyed me, should not have sailed from [the] Crete and incurred both this damage and loss.”
22 “And now I exhort you to be of good cheer. For there will be no throwing away(=no loss) of life among you, but only of the ship.”
23 “For this(=last) night the angel of God whose I am and whom I serve stood by me,”
24 “saying, ‘Fear not, Paul, it is necessary for you to stand before(=you must stand before) Caesar. And behold, [the] God has granted you all the ones sailing with you.’”
25 “Therefore be of good cheer, men, for I believe(=have faith) in [the] God that it will be(=happen) just as it has been told me.”
26 “But it is necessary for us to run aground(=we must run aground) onto a certain island.”
27 And when the fourteenth night came, our having been carried about(=while we were being driven about)12 in the Adria, about midnight the sailors were suspecting a certain country to approach to them(=they were approaching the land).
28 And having sounded, they found twenty fathoms. And having moved on a short time, and having sounded again, they found fifteen fathoms.
29 And fearing lest we(=they) might run against rocky places(=on the rocks), having thrown four anchors from the stern, they were praying (for) day to come,
30 and the sailors’ seeking(=as the sailors sought)13 to escape from the ship and having lowered(=the sailors had lowered)14 the boat into the sea under the pretext of being about to lay out anchors from the bow.
31 [The] Paul said (to) the centurion and the soldiers. “Unless these men remain in the ship, you are not able to be saved.”
32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat and let it(=the boat) fall off.
33 And until(=while) the day was about to come, [the] Paul were urging them all to take (some) food, saying, “Today is (the) fourteenth day (that) you continued waiting without food, having taken nothing.”
34 “Therefore I urge you to take (some) food. For this (is) for your salvation. For a hair will not be lost from the head of any among you.”
35 And having said these things, and having taken bread, he gave thanks to [the] God before them all. And having broken (it), he began to eat.
36 And having been cheerful, they all took food.
37 And we all in the ship were two hundred (and) seventy six souls(=persons).
38 And having been satisfied of(=with) food, they were lightening the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.
39 And when day came, they were not recognizing the land, but they were noticing a certain bay having a beach, into which they were deciding if they were able to push out(=drive) the ship.
40 And having cast off the anchors, they were leaving (them) in the sea. At the same time having loosen the fastenings(=ropes) of the rudders, and having hoisted the foresail to the wind, they were making to the beach.
41 And having fallen into a place between two seas(=where two seas met), they ran the ship aground. And the bow, having stuck fast, remained immovable. But the stern was being broken by the force (of wave).
42 And the soldiers’ plan was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any (of them), having swum away, should escape.
43 But the centurion, wanting to save [the] Paul, prevented them (from) the(=their) purpose. And he ordered the ones being able to swim, having jumped overboard(=to jump overboard) first (and) to go onto the land.
44 And (he ordered) the rest, some on planks and some on certain things from the ship, (to go onto the land). And so it came to pass all to be saved(=they all were brought safely) on(=to) the land.
